Cordyceps Complex
What is Cordyceps Sinensis
Cordyceps is actually a type of fungus, just like mushrooms. However, it is a very unique and precious type of fungus. It has to be collected around the beginning of summer time, before the melting of snow (since it grows on very high altitude). At this time, the stroma (part of the fungus) is just above the thick snow.
